Guest UserThe hotel's location and views are absolutely stunning. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the high-floor rooms offer breathtaking panoramic views. On one side, you can see the red tiles and green trees of the old city, while on the other, you have a distant view of Jiaozhou Bay. Qingdao TV Tower and the scenery of Badaguan are all within sight. You can enjoy the city's mountain and sea panorama right from your bed, and it's perfect for photos.
The room is spacious and airy, with modern and elegant decor. The facilities are well-maintained, and the bedding is comfortable. When we checked in with our child, they even provided bed railings. The large glass windows let in plenty of natural light. Sitting on the window-side sofa, quietly overlooking the red rooftops of the old city and the distant sea, was a wonderful experience. Our butler, Sandy Xiao Dan, was incredibly thoughtful and attentive, making us feel right at home!

My stay at the Orange Crystal Hotel (Qingdao May Fourth Square) far exceeded my expectations! The hotel clearly puts a lot of effort into its brand culture; there's a story about the brand's origins on the bedside table, and reading it truly gives you a sense of their original vision, creating a wonderful ambiance.
Early in my stay, there was a strange noise in my room. After contacting the front desk, they handled it incredibly efficiently, without much back-and-forth. They immediately arranged a room change, and the new room type was perfect. The soundproofing in the new room was excellent; it was quiet all night, and I couldn't hear any guests in the adjacent rooms, which made for a very restful sleep. I especially want to commend the self-service laundry room. It's managed by dedicated staff and fully equipped with disinfectant and antibacterial laundry detergent. I missed the pick-up time for my laundry, and the staff thoughtfully folded my clothes neatly and placed them in a special laundry bag. Such attention to detail was incredibly heartwarming.
Throughout my stay, the service was exceptionally warm. Every staff member I encountered on the way would proactively greet guests politely and appropriately. It wasn't just standardized service; they truly went the extra mile with their thoughtful touches. The location is excellent, making travel convenient. For those who value details and service quality, this hotel is definitely worth choosing!

Guest UserWe stayed at the Crowne Plaza Qingdao while on a family road trip. It's an older five-star hotel that's been open for years, so the facilities feel a bit dated, but they're well-maintained. The guest rooms have an elegant, understated European retro style with plenty of stone and wrought iron decor, giving off a 'old money' vibe.
We were lucky enough to get a free upgrade to a spacious 60-square-meter suite. The layout was excellent with distinct zones, so there was plenty of room for the whole family without feeling cramped. At just over 600 yuan, it offered outstanding value for money. I especially want to praise the bedding – it was soft and breathable, making for a great night's sleep and effectively easing the fatigue from our long drive. The front desk staff were prompt with their service and very friendly towards children. The hotel is centrally located on Hong Kong Middle Road, with convenient parking for those driving, and easy access to the beach and shopping areas. It's truly ideal for family travel.

ShibazhongyingThis was the hotel I was most looking forward to on this trip. I booked it because it was a 5-star resort, hoping to relax with my parents. However, when we drove up to the entrance, there was no one to help with luggage or direct us to parking. The entrance was completely empty. I thought everyone was busy, but once inside the lobby, I saw plenty of staff, yet no one came forward to assist us. This is unheard of in any 5-star hotel I've stayed at. After we went in, my dad asked where the charging stations in the parking lot were, and if they were fast or slow chargers. The staff member couldn't answer any of his questions, saying they'd have to go ask. In the end, we had no choice but to follow the signs and find the parking ourselves.
On the bright side, the two rooms we booked could be connected by opening a door to form a single suite, which was a nice experience.
Actually, when you approached the staff for something, their attitude was good, but it felt like there were some management issues. For example, after checking out, my mother realized she had left something in the room's refrigerator. I immediately called the front desk, explaining we were driving back to get it and asking if someone could collect the item and leave it at the concierge. The front desk confirmed it was no problem.
After driving back to the hotel for about 20 minutes, my mother inquired at the concierge, but the concierge staff had no idea about it. They had to go ask the front desk, and only after getting a confirmation did they go up to the room to retrieve the item. We then waited at the hotel for almost 20 to 30 minutes, which was a very poor experience.
Overall, the environment and cleanliness were excellent. The location is in Qingdao's new district, and the surrounding area, plus the sea view terrace, added a lot of points. However, the initial bad experience significantly lowered our overall impression. I hope they can make more improvements.
Being able to see the sunrise and sunset over the sea from the room was something I really loved!
The breakfast selection was comprehensive and delicious.

GuyuAThe surroundings are pretty good; you can see the sea from the room. Downstairs, there are late-night food options and a few small convenience stores. It's about a 10-15 minute walk to the subway station. The hotel's hygiene could be better; there were some strange little things on the bed. The in-room facilities are very complete; there's a washing machine (though it doesn't have a dryer function, there's a drying rack). The washing machine had a problem, but they came to fix it promptly. There's also a fridge and an induction cooker, which I didn't use. Check-out was self-service, but there was staff at the front desk when I arrived. The TV is internet-based, so you can watch content if you have a membership.

Guest UserChoosing The Westin Qingdao for my trip was an absolute delight, and what truly made my stay exceptional was the outstanding service from the entire front office team. From check-in upon arrival to answering all my questions throughout my stay and finally a smooth check-out, every step reflected the professional standards of a five-star hotel, far exceeding my expectations.
As soon as our car pulled up to the hotel entrance, a front office staff member proactively approached to guide us, thoughtfully directing us to the lobby for check-in. Stepping into the lobby and approaching the reception area, the staff members were consistently warm and friendly in their tone, providing genuine and sincere service, completely devoid of any robotic, impersonal feel. The check-in process was highly efficient and streamlined. During the process, they took the initiative to meticulously explain all key information, including suite privileges, important notes on using the room key card, opening hours for hotel facilities, and 24-hour service contact details. Everything was explained clearly and comprehensively, saving guests the trouble of having to ask individual questions.
As it was my first time visiting Qingdao, I wasn't very familiar with the city's attractions or unique touring routes. Initially, I just planned to quickly check in and head to my room to rest. However, the front office staff attentively noticed my travel needs and, combining them with my preferences, patiently shared recommendations for local hotspots, the best times for scenic views, and reliable tour route planning. They thoughtfully helped me avoid crowded areas and proactively identified potential needs I hadn't even voiced, offering personalized suggestions. This spontaneous, heartwarming service instantly melted away the fatigue from my journey.
During my several-day stay, whether it was during my daytime excursions or a late-night query, simply calling the front desk for changes in itinerary, booking taxis, local travel tips, or room-related coordination issues, the phone was always answered quickly. The staff consistently maintained a patient and meticulous attitude, diligently listening to my requests and providing practical solutions. Their response time was incredibly fast; there was never any delay, perfunctory response, or passive feedback. It was clear that the entire front office team had well-defined roles and worked seamlessly together, handling various guest inquiries with poise and professionalism. Their professional competence was truly outstanding.
At check-out, the front office procedures were equally simple and fast, with no long queues or waiting times. The billing and verification process was transparent and efficient, making the entire experience hassle-free. From the initial reception upon arrival, through the constant support during my stay, to the thoughtful farewell at departure, the front office consistently maintained a steady and heartfelt service, truly ensuring that every need was met and every guest felt cared for.
Much of this wonderful stay experience is owed to the meticulous service of the front office team. If I return to Qingdao, I will still prioritize this hotel, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to all fellow travelers.

Guest UserThe female staff members I encountered at this hotel were all wonderful. When I booked a tent, I was told the beach would be shady in the afternoon, but I actually needed the tent more in the morning. They were very helpful and changed my reservation to the morning. When checking in, they noticed I had a small baby and proactively asked if I could wait a few hours to get a room upgrade to a sea-view room. Since I was going to Mount Laoshan that day, I checked in in the evening and was upgraded directly to a sea-view room. Many thanks to the front desk staff who checked me in and the staff who helped me book the tent. The room was also cleaned very well every day.

Our stay at the hotel was overall very pleasant. The hotel itself looks absolutely amazing, it truly feels like staying in a castle, both from the outside and inside. Our room had a beautiful sea view, which created a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.
The breakfast offered a nice variety of options, and the café with its balcony overlooking the sea was a wonderful place to enjoy coffee. The food at the café was also very good.
One of the highlights of our stay was the concierge service. The concierge was extremely helpful, polite, and professional. He assisted us many times with our deliveries and always made a great impression. Most of the hotel staff were friendly and welcoming as well.
The hotel’s location, away from the city center, is actually a big advantage for those looking for a quiet and relaxing holiday. The beach is not crowded, and the swimming pool is usually peaceful and not busy.
However, there are some areas where the hotel could improve.
The room cleaning service needs more attention. It wasn't good at all.
Some cups at breakfast were also dirty or cracked.
The service at the café could be improved as well. When we came to order afternoon tea at around 5 PM, one of the young staff members seemed unhappy and impatient because it was close to the end of his working day. After making a short call, we were told that the kitchen was not answering and that they were no longer working. This experience did not feel very welcoming. Though I understand he really wanted to leave work asap, he could share it with his coworker after we left, not in front of us 🤣
The hotel also has a Japanese restaurant, but the staff could not provide clear information about its opening days or availability. We were told it might be open on Thursday and Friday, but it was not certain.
Another concern is the small zoo area. animals appeared to be staying outside in the heat all day. In particular, there was a dog kept in a cage outside during very hot weather (around 35°C), which was concerning and seemed unsuitable for the animal’s comfort..
The beach near the hotel was unfortunately quite dirty, which is something that could be improved.
Regarding the swimming pools, the indoor pool felt quite cold, especially with the air conditioning, making it difficult to enjoy with a child when the outdoor weather is too hot. The outdoor pool area also has limited comfortable seating. There are only a few lounge chairs, and adding soft cushions or mats would greatly improve the experience and make the area more relaxing.
Overall, we had a nice stay and enjoyed the beautiful atmosphere, views, and peaceful location. The hotel has great potential, and with some improvements in service quality, cleanliness, and facilities, it could become an even better experience for guests.

This is the perfect place to stay if you love shopping malls! The transportation is convenient. Exit A2 of Wusi Square Station, turn left, walk for five minutes, and you'll see Yuexi Apartments on your right. The front desk is on the first floor for check-in. Nearby, there's a 7-Eleven and a Luckin Coffee, and a few restaurants further up the street. I'm giving it five stars mainly because the price is acceptable, and the staff at the front desk was friendly and polite. The in-room amenities aren't perfect; I recommend reading other reviews as many people have already pointed out key issues. However, these seem to be building-wide problems (like dimly lit corridors to save energy, slow elevators, etc.). Although the room I stayed in didn't have a stunning view (it wasn't a sea view room and was blocked by the building in front), the bed and pillows were very comfortable for all three nights, and housekeeping cleaned daily. For your first check-in, it's easier to enter from the first floor. Once you have your room card, you can access Yuexi Apartments from the 6th-floor Sky City Garden, which connects directly to MIXC Mall. The in-room washer and dryer are very convenient, and they provide a small packet of laundry detergent daily. The refrigerator is large and cold enough! I suggest adding a plate or two and some utensils to the kitchen, which would make it even more convenient for guests.
